The base rules are actually not very complicated.

But any time you try to write them down, people will come along and interpret them to their own advantage, sometimes outright in the opposite direction. That's a people problem, to some extent, not purely a Wikipedia problem.

I think this a feature/bug of a (litigious) society that works on the letter of the law rather than the spirit of the law.
